My wife and I have Ipods but I cant get her music to play on itunes?

please help

Why not?
What happens when you try to play it?
What have you tried to resolve it so far?
Is the computer authorized for her iTunes account?

  • My friend gave me her ipod but i cant get the music to my empty library

    i have my friends old ipod with her music still on it. but i cant get the music to my empty library

    This friend gave you their iPod, not their media.  The media is not yours and you have no legal right to it.
    Restore the device as new via iTunes on the computer.
    Purchase your own media and sync it to the device.

  • HT1386 I have just purchased an ipad3 mainly for storing and viewing my photos but I cannot get my photos to sinc from itunes. Does anyone have the solution.

    Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

  • Wife and I have macbook, but one apple ID. I see her stuff on my computer and vice versa. How do I correct that

    My wife and I have a MacBook pro. We share an apple id. When I use my computer I see her favorites, bookmarks etc..(even on my IPAD). I want to be able to have our own accounts so that we don't see each others stuff on each others computers and Ipad, but be able to keep the family share account so we can use iTunes and apps together? Please help.

    You create a new user account on the computer in her name along with her own Apple ID. The following is for using iDevices, but part of it applies in your situation as well.
    Using More than One iDevice on the Same Computer
    This applies mainly to couples who are adding another device and do not want their email, messages, etc. being duplicated on both devices. To begin read: How to use multiple iPhone, iPad, or iPod devices with one computer. You need to establish a separate Apple ID and password for whomever will use the new iDevice. See Apple - My Apple ID and Frequently asked questions about Apple ID. The easiest way is to do this on the computer using iTunes: iTunes- How to set up an Apple ID within iTunes.
    On the computer create a new user account for the person with the new iDevice. This will be the user account that person will always use. He/She will no longer use the other user account. This way that person will have a separate iTunes Library. Note that once done you cannot "share" apps under a single Apple ID. Each of you must purchase your own apps under your own Apple ID. When you decide to split up like this one of you will need to re-purchase the apps that they want to use.
    Start by transferring the new device(s) to a new account along with all your data.  Save any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll (unless they are already in the camera roll) by opening your Photos app, tap on Albums icon at the bottom. Now, tap on My Photo Stream album; tap Select; tap on the photos you want to select;, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow) in the lower left corner; then tap Save to Camera Roll.
    If you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep then you need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself. Later you can copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account.
    Tap on Settings > iCloud > Delete Account (only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; the person keeping the current account will not be affected,) provide the password to turn off Find My Phone and choose Keep on My iDevice when prompted.  Sign in with a different Apple ID to create your new account. Choose Merge to upload your data.
    Once you are on separate accounts, you can each go to icloud.com and delete the other person's data from your account.
    Note: The essence of the above was created by user, randers4. I

  • How to change apple id on iPhone. Wife and I have same apple ID.  Get each others iMessages. want to put her on another cloud with different id.

    How to change apple id on iPhone? Wife and I have same apple ID which causes me to get her iMessages instead of her. I also get all her pics on my phone and I don't want them.  We need to change her apple ID without causing my ID and cloud to be closed.

    Have her create a new ID.   Here:  https://appleid.apple.com/
    Have her log out of iMessage/Facetime/iCloud on her device.   Now have her use the new ID she has created.
    That should keep the 2 of you separated, except for iTunes purchases.   You can share that ID in a family up to 5 devices.

  • I have an ipod 5g and when i turn it on it stays on the apple screen and i have put it into recovery mode and restored it twice but i cant get it to work

    i need my ipod but i have been up for hours looking up what to do and trying to fix it but i dont know waht to do it just gets stuck on the apple screen. PLEASE HELP!!!!

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • HT204053 both my wife and I have iphones but only one apple ID

    we share my apple id for all apps and music, but she wants her own email (i gues now it would be an icloud account?) as I still have a .mac account, but she doesnt want to have to set up a new credit card, or loose the music and apps we already have.  I realize this may be basic, but I could use your help, any ideas?

    She can create a new Apple ID at http://appleid.apple.com and sign into System Preferences>iCloud with that instead of the existing one; but continue to use the existing one for iTunes.

  • We just bought a ipad2 from a friend and we reset it but she cant remember her original email so we can transfer this to us

    We bought a ipad from a friend but she doesnt know the email address or password she used to set it up we have already reset it what can we do now?

    Well, a portion of it will appear in the activation screen. It could be enough to jog her memory. She is going to have to reset the password so she can remove the device. If she cannot remove the device from her account, the device is useless to you. If she does not want to try and remove it, then demand your money back. Apple cannot assist you. If however, she purchased the device new, she can take the device and the original sales slip to an actual Apple Store and they may be able to help.

  • Hi, My daughter has an ipod, but i cant get my itunes account to recognise the ipod on my home computer...? Help please.

    Hi my daughter has an ipod touch and my computer does not recognise the ipod when it is connected. Help please.

    You may be able to buy a program to do this - not supported by Apple.
    the ipod is not a storage device.  The sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The only exception is itunes purchaes.
    The music should be on a computer as that is where they came from in the first place.

  • I switched music from iTunes from my old laptop to my new one, but can't get the music to play

    I seem to be having problems with my new laptop, specifically in playing music on iTunes.  I have a HP Envy using Windows 8.  I downloaded the compatible version of iTunes for Windows 8 and moved the music from my old laptop (Dell Latitude D830) to my new one.  I tried to play some of the music and after clicking play nothing happens.  I have also noticed that I seem to have difficulties running the program if I don't run it as administrator.  So if there is any advice anyone could give me I would greatly appreciate it.

  • HT1349 How do I set up a separate icloud account? Both my wife and I have an iPhone 4s and an iPad, but only one Mac. We are tired of our "stuff" getting mixed up together when we sync.

    How do I set up a separate icloud account? Both my wife and I have an iPhone 4s and an iPad (1 and 3), but only one Mac. We are tired of our "stuff" getting mixed up together when we sync. Thanks much

    You don't need separate iCloud accounts if you want to simply sync unique content to each device using iTunes. I have three iDevices using one ID and one iTunes library and each device has it's own content on it. You need to set up the sync configuration for each device. This is what I recommend.
    First turn off auto sync in iTunes. Launch iTunes on the Mac and go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices>Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from automatically syncing. Click OK and then quit iTunes.
    Connect one of your devices to the Mac and launch iTunes.
    Click on the device name on the left side under the devices heading.
    Click on a tab in iTunes - Apps for instance.
    Click on the Apps that you want to sync to that device.
    Make sure that the Sync Apps heading is checked.
    Follow the same procedure for all of the other tabs in iTunes ..... Music, Photos, Movies and so on.
    After you have finished making all of your selections, click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes.
    When you are done, eject the first device and do the same thing with the other device. iTunes will now remember the sync configuration on each device.
    You can change that configuration any time that you like by following the steps outlined above.
    If you want to continue to auto sync, turn it back on in the iTunes preferences as described above.
